Meeting Rupert Mackeson with Simon Nott.
SIR RUPERT MACKESON (part 2 of 2)
The bad Baronet talks about being brought up in a large country house and his grandfather who started the Mackeson brewery which was sold in 1921. Rupert talks about his first school which doesn’t sound a lot of fun but Harrow was much better. He confides that his childhood wasn’t a happy one and that his father showed more interest in his gun dog than him, going to university in Ireland and then about his latest book, ‘Frankie Dettori’s British Classic Winners’
